First SOO power
Title:  First SOO power
Description:  Since the first grain train ran to the Port of Albany, we had been waiting for this day. The grain trains originated in Minneapolis, so we knew it was a matter of time before power from CP owned SOO Line came east. It finally happened on a Thursday night, the train going to Albany after darkness had fallen. The return trip, however was a home run. We could not have asked for a better situation. Clear sky, and the train called for 1330, setting up a westbound chase in perfect light. We followed him to Hornell. It was great. ABBU sits at the south end of Bevier St with two SOO units trailing CP 5674.

SOO power and the cows
Title:  SOO power and the cows
Description:  The first grain train to run on the D&H rolls west at Big Flats, an event the fans had been foaming for ever since CP started running the D&H. JJ Young even brought out his inflatable cows for the occasion.

By the station
Title:  By the station
Description:  The sun is a some time thing in the Tier. We had chased this ABBU from Binghamton, with hardly a cloud in the sky, then got dinked at Hornell. Even on the good days, clouds!! I'm standing on the site of the one time Allegany Division yard, now becoming a strip mall.

Title:  Open the gate
Description:  The new crew is on, and ABBU is ready to open up at QD and get out on the Tier. Its 2 PM on a sunny Saturday. The railfan gods were smiling on us this day. If we could have asked for the perfect moment, this was it.

Wide open
Title:  Wide open
Description:  The telephoto view from this vantage point homes in on the train and livestock. In this wider view we see how open the valley is here, and why it got to be called Big Flats. The train is on the ex Erie. The DLW here is gone without a trace, 31 years after the line went out of service.

Taken by surprise
Title:  Taken by surprise
Description:  ABBU had passed signal 325-1 and was slowly working toward downtown Hornell. The crowd on the bridge-look at the shadows-was focused on the approaching SOO units, and not paying attention to what was coming up behind. Suddenly BUOI popped out from under the bridge, making this meet shot.

River running
Title:  River running
Description:  A 271 rolls west along the Susquehanna between Campville and Owego. There were not many STLH painted units, and catching two road units together was unusual.

Through a winter wonderland
Title:  Through a winter wonderland
Description:  CP train 167 rolls through a blanket of snow as it passes an open field west of Barton. This is near where the former LV Auburn Branch crossed under the EL on its way to Sayre. Youd never know it to look at it now.

Center siding
Title:  Center siding
Description:  167 rolls west where the EL once had a center siding, as evidenced by the wide spacing of the tracks. It was removed shortly after CR took over EL operations.

Interesting set
Title:  Interesting set
Description:  A four unit set of power leads train 165 with its 51 stack platforms and 34 freight across the Harpursville bridge. The odd duck in this flock is the third unit, one of the GP 9us that generally sees only yard service. It must have been in transit to another yard, though its position in the consist would mean it was working.
